Today\u2019s news marks GlobalLogic\u2019s most recent move to strategically expand via targeted acquisitions. Assign Group meshes seamlessly with GlobalLogic\u2019s vision, strategy, and industries.

\u201cWe have been growing steadily around the world, with a keen focus on European markets,\u201d stated\u00a0Rolf Werner, Senior Vice President and Head of Europe, GlobalLogic. \u201cThe Nordic region is home to major manufacturers in several industries, notably automotive. Assign Group has a strong track record as a trusted design and engineering partner to marquee brands in this region. Being able to fold Assign Group\u2019s skills into GlobalLogic\u2019s broader suite of services allows both companies to elevate their brands while delivering more comprehensive solutions to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, Assign Group is a consultancy that provides a wide range of human-centered design capabilities and highly skilled electronics and software engineering to customers for in-house or on-site product development. The company launched in 2005 focusing its efforts on the automotive sector and quickly expanded its market coverage to include both IT and aerospace. Today, it has more than 60 professionals with clients in Sweden, China, and the United States. The company specializes in a seamless connection between user experience and engineering as a single, integrated offering. Assign has successfully designed and built innovative in-vehicle electronics, human machine interfaces, infotainment systems, active safety systems, and much more for customers operating around the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cJoining forces with GlobalLogic is the ideal next phase in our evolution,\u201d said Stefan Svensson, CEO, Assign Group. \u201cThe market opportunity for digital product engineering is increasing in all geographies, and the Nordics are no exception. As a combined company, our customers in this region will benefit from the local presence and relationships offered by Assign Group, as well as the global scale, skill-sets, and innovative Silicon Valley mindset offered by GlobalLogic. This powerful combination will open opportunities to provide greater value to our customers while deepening our relationships with them.\u201d<\/p>\n
